#(and yes they'll fall in love but is anyone surprised lol)

[theangrypomeranian]

been thinking about my Barryl Hunger Games AU again

[fae-morrigan]

Someone put a post (where they admit they straight up dont know these characters lol, and also spell damian as 'damien' so like. yknow.) in the tags saying that if you're a fan of Jon & Jay, you shouldn't buy super son. Well, as the crowned CEO of Jay & Jon, I'm here to tell you guys that you absolutely should.

Super Son did the amazing thing of hitting several marks that I predicted while still managing to surprise me in how they hit them. Which is high praise for any story: A great narrative should be able to both meet reasonable audience expectations (i.e, staying in character, setup payoff) WHILE STILL throwing in curveballs that tell you something new.

There's a lot I want to analyze and get into, namely how I think the rooftop conversation between Jon & Nia is really brilliantly done in what it says about both characters, but mainly I've been thinking a lot about how great those last few pages were and how I think Sina absolutely nails how Jon & Jay's specific issues interact with each other.

Jay's always been a blunt person. From their first meeting back in SOKE 2, hes said what he thinks, and rarely does he try and soften himself. More than that, his bluntness is often a shield from vulnerability, which Jay struggles with the whole scene. It makes total sense, after what hes experienced (re-traumatization at the hands of a friend) that he's displaying that trait again.

Jon, however, is immediately vulnerable. This is the most poignant confession of the issue: Not even in the amazing sequence of Nia helping him make a place in the darkness (look, its back, thanks isabel!) do we get this admission of fear.

And Jay, like always, embraces him. Sidenote, LOVE how they got in the thing Jon does where he's constantly tucking his face in people's shoulders during hugs.

But the moment ends, and we get here. First of all, cold af. I could feel the aura before I turned the page.

Second of all: Jay is totally valid in feeling this way. And it makes perfect sense that he would.

Sara was his everything. Getting her back was one of his main motivations in SOKE. Because of Nia's actions, she died horribly (do you know what happens to a person when they fall from that sort of height? I do. Its AWFUL.) for an unjust cause. Of course he's glad she can't hurt anyone else!

And that's when we get to my FAVORITE PART! Oh how I love this bit. Because like. You understand why Jon's angry- Its a harsh thing for Jay to say! Nia was the one who kept him sane while he was trapped in his own mind! But Jay, like always, is RIGHT: Jon DOESN'T get it. How could he?

Jon Kent will NEVER, ever, be put in this position. Out of universe, his parents are Clark Kent and Lois Lane. They'll ALWAYS come back. Hell, the fact they'll always come back is something Ma LITERALLY says to Jon in SOKE. He will never, ever have to know this pain.

In universe, Jon's a white american. Despite being queer, despite being an alien, he'll never know what its like to be this kind of collateral, delegated as pawns in a greater war for 'freedom'. That is what killed Sara at the end of the day: imperialism.

This next bit hurts my heart. Great job, guys!

For one: Jon claims he's not excusing the mistakes Nia made, but by downplaying it like this... yes he is. But did you catch that part? Right at the start of that bubble?

"I'm going to fight every day to make up for my own part in this."

That's where it clicked for me. Something I had been hoping for since Nicole first called them twin flames.

He's projecting.

Of COURSE he's defending Nia. Of COURSE he wants Jay to forgive her. It isn't just about the fact that she gave him support, it isn't just the dreams, its the fact that... well. If Jay can't forgive her... how could he EVER forgive HIM?

THIS is where the fact that Jon and Nia are so similar as character SINGS. They become mirrors to each other, evaluating their own self worth through the other, at the unintentional expense of the people they've hurt.

Jay's right, though. Again. Its almost like he's the embodiment of the truth or something. He doesn't HAVE to do anything.

When he starts crying though, I immediately was RUINED. This is the first time we have EVER seen him cry before during his entire existence of a character. And its not really even because his mom is dead (though yes, that) and its not even because of the argument. Its because Jay fundamentally wants to be understood, and he's not getting that.

Which is important for the next bit:

I want to first backtrack a bit to Son of Kal El again, specifically, issue fourteen, right here.

Hello, two-panel sequence that succinctly describes these two as characters. How convenient you are for me, a guy analyzing a work that isn't written prose.

Jon isn't good at letting go, for better or for worse. The things he cares about stay with him, and when something or someone tries to exit his life, he clings to them with all his might.

Jay however, both selflessly and selfishly, is willing to let go first if he thinks its better for the other person. To me this line so effortlessly summarizes who Jay is- he's a person who's accustomed to not having things, and will leave before it hurts and he gets too attached.

And that thought is ALL over this scene. Jay, who begins to let go, Jon, who both literally and physically CLINGS to jay, practically begging him to stay.

(Sidenote. This is like, the third time Jay mentions breaking up when Jon starts acting up. Good for you king, keep that white boy on his toes, let him know he ain't all that.)

Every little detail of this four panel sequence is killing me. "My worst nightmare is not having a home with you in it." His greatest desire. The thing that kept tipping him off in every fake reality Nia constructed for him- Jay's absence. Him wiping the tear of Jay's cheek. Jay walking away from him.

But what really gets me is how on this page, Jon talks about them as 'we', while Jay is firmly stuck in 'I.'

This is what made me LOSE MY MARBLES at three in the morning. Just utterly fucking off my rocker in a straightjacket talking to myself.

Because this is what JON wants. But is it what JAY wants?

Jon never asks.

What about what Jay fears? What about the life that HE wants? What if he doesn't want San Francisco? What if the life he wants is the life he HAD before everything went wrong? Jon outright says he wants a fresh start. But Jay, Jay's someone with such deep connections to what he just lost, what he likely WANTS to get back. His country. His mother. His sense of self. But. He says yes.

(Sidenote. FIRST I LOVE YOU WOOOOOOOOOO) To quote my buddy Dami: Oh, the drama of needing a future with someone who can't get over the past.

It is left unclear, by the end, whether or not Jay is saying yes to this because he genuinely wants to, or if he's only saying yes because he doesn't want to lose Jon, too. Jon doesn't stop to question whether or not Jay's only reaching after him because Jon's walking away. We, the audience, are left to ponder that for ourselves.

How much of Jay saying yes is him just accepting that this is the best he's going to get? That he's never going to be understood because nobody wants to understand?

He's an afterthought to Nia, an obstacle at best, and to Jon he's a particularly handsome prop in this little fantasy he has of running away and starting new. He's either not thought of at all, or when he is thought about, it's in the context of how he can emotionally fulfill the other person And you get why Jon did this. He's desperate, he's hurting, he just got tangible evidence that the time he has with the people he loves isn't ever guaranteed. He's been needing space from Clark and Lois for MONTHS because god knows they haven't been fulfilling his emotional needs. In a very real sense, Jay is who he has.

But wanting someone to stay with you so much that you'll... Not even ignore, but just not ever consider what they may want. The intentional isolation, moving halfway across the country away from all support systems. The need to cling to someone.

It reminds me of... something. Someone.

Don't tell Jon I made this comparison. He'll kill himself. Jon and Ultraman ARE similar. They're both such deeply lonely people who cling very tightly and even though it manifests in different ways and even though they have different core thoughts about it. The effect at the end of the day is the same, isn't it?

Is loving Jay not a brutal act of destruction?

There's so many more details about this story I love. Jon & Nia's conversation being vague enough that you have no idea how Jon meant what he told her but you KNOW how NIA took it (girl you can do better hes literally ugly!). Jon breaking a pillar by bonking his head against it (LMFAO). The pretty lies vs ugly truth dichotomy of Jay vs Nia here.

But this one scene, man. This one fucking scene takes the cake. STELLAR work all around. Every panel counts.

This better lead into a full Superman & Gossamer run or SOMETHING or I'm going to have WORDS with DC's editorial staff.

Okay, doing my worst.. rank all the main characters we’ve ever had on The Rookie! 😇

As you wish:

Tim Bradford — This man. From that very first episode, I was invested. The way I went from thinking he was the biggest asshole on the planet to just wanting to wrap him up in a big hug in a single episode?? LOVE. His journey has been spectacular, and I'm a total sucker for character development, which is the only reason I placed him ahead of Lucy (*ask me again in five minutes and they'll swap places)

Lucy Chen — How could anyone not adore her? (Seriously, how?? I've seen some negative takes and I just cannot fathom how anyone could think a single bad thing about her.) She's kind and compassionate, whip smart and a total badass. She deserves everything!!!!!

Nyla Harper — I love her, her take-no-shit attitude is amazing, and she's such a badass. She, too, has had so much growth since her debut, and I've loved seeing her go from "I don't care about anyone, I'm just here for the pay bump" to being an integral part of the team family.

Aaron Thorsen — I'll be honest, this one surprised me. I still remember how I initially disliked him, and now here I am ranking him close to the top of my list. He just adds so much fun to the show, and I particularly love seeing him play off of both Tim and Lucy.

Angela Lopez — My queen. She's sassy and witty, but has so much heart! And I basically live for her friendship with Tim. I really hope we'll see more from her character this season and beyond, because between her pregnancies and Elijah, we haven't seen nearly enough of what she's capable of!

Wade Grey — Listen, I'm nowhere near as invested in Grey as I am most of the others, but I still love him. He's like the Papa Bear of the show. He cares so deeply for his team (and the man sees everythiiiiiing).

Jackson West — I think Jackson is the most difficult one for me to place, in part because it feels like forever ago that he was part of the show, and also because I like him less upon rewatching as I did originally? Listen, I like the idea of Jackson more than Jackson himself a lot of the time. I absolutely adore the fanfic version of Jackson, but I think he fell short in a lot of ways on the show itself. Especially following DOD, I think he could have and should have been a better, more supportive friend to Lucy. And I've never loved his sort of holier-than-thou attitude. But his place in the original crew earns him a special place in my heart (and on this list), because his good moments definitely outweigh the bad ones. And the money I'd have paid to see him reacting to Chenford?? RIP.

Bailey Nune — Is she my favourite? Absolutely not (as evidenced by her place on this list lol). But I don't always understand the way people hate on her. She's definitely shoehorned into a lot of scenes/storylines, but that's not the character's fault. And I've enjoyed her more and more as we've seen some flaws in the "I'm a master at everything I do" façade. The episode where her college(?) friend visits and she's trying to keep up? Fun! When she thinks a coyote is a puppy? Love! Calling Lucy a badass? You go girl! I hope we continue to see her interacting more with the other characters, because they're doing Bailey/Jenna a massive disservice by not mixing it up more!

Wesley Evers — I really, really like him, but compared to so many characters that I absolutely adore, he has to fall toward the bottom of the list. Hate to say it, but he doesn't really add anything to the show (🙈)? Maybe we'll see more of that now that's working for the DA's office, but as of right now, I just don't get excited when I see him on my screen.

Celina Juarez — She's fun, and I enjoy her, don't get me wrong. But I just find her behaviour as a rookie jarring when I compare it to our original trio. Though to be fair, these are more reasons to dislike Nolan as a TO than faults of Celina herself...

Zoe Andersen — Did I love her? Yes, absolutely, she was fantastic! (And her death still wrecks me every single time!) But it feels unfair to rank her higher, simply because we only had her for a short time. I often think about how things would be different if she was still around. I think she'd be a fantastic mentor for Lucy in particular.

John Nolan — Look, this ranking doesn't mean I hate him. I don't. I actually like all of these characters, that's the beauty of this show for me. But of them all, I am the least invested in Nolan. Maybe that's a byproduct of how he's been written over the last few seasons - it's hard to care too much when you know that, no matter what happens, everything's going to work out perfectly for him, you know?

Talia Bishop — She had some good moments, don't get me wrong (I especially enjoyed her dynamic with Tim), but I just didn't get on board with her character like the others.

Thanks Pauli, this was super fun, you can keep the 😇 title... (I wonder what people would say if I put Nolan at the top of my list? 😂😂😂)

HI!! I was wondering if you could go headcannons of Josh Washington with a cane user s/o? And how he helps them and mabye how he introduces them to group? G/n reader please if not that's okay! Please and thank you <33

━ 𝐉𝐎𝐒𝐇 𝐖/ 𝐀𝐍 𝐒/𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐔𝐒𝐄𝐒 𝐀 𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐄

𝙥𝙖𝙞𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜(𝙨) - Josh Washington x G/N!Reader

𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 - Cursing, slight angst?, super fluffy!!

𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙤𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙 ? - Yeah/Nope/kind of?

𝙖𝙪𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙧'𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩𝙚 - I hope you liked it!! had to do a tiny bit of research for it lol and I'm sorry it took so long!!! ily <33

You didn't know each other at first, you knew Sam though

You two had met after running into each other at the park, you were sitting on the bench and she was on a run and sat next to you take a breather

You kind of clicked and soon enough you became great friends, friends enough that she wanted to to introduce you to her other friends

Well one specific friend, because she just knew who you'd click with

And at first you were kind of nervous, you understood that you having to use a cane so young was a bit different then what people were used to

Especially people you're age

But Sam took you to the café anyway and there is where you met Josh who didn't even know Sam was bringing you

But he was enamored, and Sam knew it, he could barely form a full sentence without stuttering over at least one word

Then it was only worse when she had to 'leave early' and it was only you two

And somehow he finally asked if you wanted to go out, and of course you said yes

It came very clear very quickly that Josh didn't mind helping you and even liked when you smiled, giggled and asked despite some people in the past who were assholes

Being your boyfriend was his favorite thing

He always waits for you to ask, or if it's obvious you can't do something completely on your own

Josh doesn't just like to swoop in and do it himself, you're capable and he knows it, he's not your savior

He's your assistant, as you so clearly joked one time while he rolled his eyes and kissed you

Helps you up the stairs if need be, especially in crowded places and will tell someone to shut the hell up if they start complaining too loudly for his liking

Same with public transport, will fight a lady from her seat if you absolutely need to sit down, will even sit you on his lap if he's gotta

With carry anything you need carried if you can't hold it, he doesn't care how heavy it is

If you're ever in pain you know who to go to

But Josh is a huge jokester so prepare for him to playfully make fun of you sometimes, but only when the time is right if you're upset he's not gonna randomly turn into a comedian

He also probably has a ton of cane jokes up his sleeve, will tell them to you why you're both relaxing in bed until you're begging for him to shut up and sleep

And if you EVER get a little tiny bit insecure about having to use a cane he's right there reminding you that it wasn't the cane that made him fall in love

You're amazing, an amazing person that is so kind and sweet that if anyone made fun of you they're stupid idiots

That makes you laugh

You're just as nervous to meet the rest of his friends as you were to meet him

But he doesn't care, and if they make fun of you or don't like you he promises that he will borrow your cane just to give them a quick beating

Because they're obviously dumb if they don't like you

But surprise, surprise they very much do

Especially Chris since you know he's Josh's best friend, he's just also very sweet and helps you all the same

You guys get along great and Josh is over the moon

You even answer their questions because they are nice about, except for Emily who comes off slightly rude but doesn't really mean it

Quickly thought you become one of them and if you ever need anything, they're there to help always

ESPECIALLY his sisters, they're your sisters now sorry if you liked being an only child or if you already have some

They're pretty sure they like you more than him

And again, they'll always support you, they're the sweetest

Also will tell someone to shut up if they're rude, Beth does not hold back

For the 'OC ask meme! 😊

🔵🟣 and ⚽️

Hey there! Thank you for the asks! I think I'll answer for my two T/C's - Tobias & Casey (OH) and Trystan & Carolina (COP). :)

From this list.

🔵 Blue- How would your OC spend a single day of interrupted peace? Where would they go, or who would they be with?

Tobias & Casey - they'd totally spend the day together - no questions asked. They're very fond of spa days, so they may head off to that together. However, they're even more fond of... uhm, each other 😏. So there is a very good chance they won't ever leave the four walls of their bedroom, except to pick up the takeout they order in for sustenance... and they'd be quite happy. lol

Trystan & Carolina - As detectives with a penchant for attracting danger, downtime is greatly appreciated, and the more "down," the better. So they'd be staying in, wearing their most comfy sweats, with a long list of movies they've been meaning to watch, their favorite snacks, lots of making out, and napping. They'll fall asleep happy! 😊

🟣 Purple- What is something that your OC could not live without? What keeps them grounded in the worst of times?

Tobias & Casey - Each other. Period. Later, their three daughters. As long as they have that, they'll be fine. During the worst times, they rely on each other and those closest to them. Most are surprised to know that Tobias also has a very strong faith. It doesn't fit his character, esp. pre-Casey, but that makes people unique - they're never exactly what we expect. Casey doesn't have as much faith in a greater power, at least not at first, but she has incredible faith in the human spirit, which helps her through.

Trystan & Carolina - For Carolina, it's Trystan and her family. For Trystan, it's Caronlina and Marguerite. Could they survive without them? Yes, they are very strong. They could survive, but live would be a strong word. Before Trystan, Carolina's desire to live up to what her father believed she could be was a significant motivating factor. For Trystan, proving that he was not what his family thought him to be provided the same motivation.

⚽️ Soccer Ball- Who is someone that your OC believes in and roots for? Are they private about their admiration, or do they make it well known?

Casey - It may sound trite, but Casey roots for everyone. She's not one to get jealous of others' success; she wants everyone to succeed and doesn't feel another's good fortune diminishes hers (or anyone else's) in any way. I have added @mydemonsdrivealimo's MC, Jensen Valentine, into my Tobias/Casey world. He and his partner, Bryce, are two of her closest friends. She roots for both of them, but she especially roots for Jensen. She knows he got a lot of bad breaks in life, and she wants him to have all things good. She doesn't keep it a secret but isn't extremely obvious about it either because she knows that would make him uncomfortable.

Tobias - Casey. He's her biggest cheerleader. He was pivotal in getting her back to being herself after the chemical attack (at that point, they were just friends), and he continues to be her biggest supporter for life. He is not even A LITTLE BIT private about it. The man cannot hide how he feels about her and her abilities. When she gets a win, even if she proves him wrong, he loves it (and he's usually pretty turned on, lol).

Carolina - Trystan, although that's not instantaneous. At first, she thought he was a spoiled pain in the ass. But the more she comes to know him and sees what he's about, the more she believes in him and wants to see him thrive. While she's generally not overly effusive, she is not quiet about it either.

Trystan - Carolina. From day 1. Period. As soon as he realized she wasn't in his apartment to kill him, the Carolina Rose Appreciation Society was formed. He had never met anyone quite like her and was in awe. The man tagged along like a puppy because, sure, he was smitten, but he was also in awe. He wanted to be as cool as she was when he grew up. He couldn't keep it quiet if he tried. 😊

Thanks so much for asking!

[castlebyersafterdark]

re: weddings, if you think about it, anything humans do is weirdly theatrical in a way. even throwing a dinner party. so i tend to lean more towards enjoying the concept of weddings at their purest form: celebration of love. marriage, on the other hand... whoo boy. im part romantic and part skeptic, which i think leaves me in a good middle place. i know that in the west, marriage itself really is more about contracts and legalities than love, especially when you consider down the line and the changeable nature of humans. you marry your partner as they are now, but they'll be ten different people (and so will you) throughout the duration of your time together. people who understand this i think are better suited to adapt to all life's challenges. this is why i always cringe when i see people who want to get married and you know what they mean is 'i want to have a wedding.'

your thing about not thinking anyone would ever marry you is so.... man. same! but look at you now! so lovely. all we see here is your personality but that's compelling as heck, and good conversation is such an attractive feature. im sure youve broken plenty of hearts without even knowing it. i know compliments like that dont always convince people they're loveable, so i won't ramble. im sure your fiance gives you all you need in that dept, but yeah. protect that small inner child who still thinks he's unloveable, vinny! hug him close always 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

and lastly please do tell us about the sibling weddings lol, i wanna know now! MY inner child always liked the idea of two men (or women) getting married in a traditional way, it seemed like a bigger up yours to the bigots because it highlighted how it didnt have to be any different except swapping out the genders. and i think thats beautiful, just the image of two men in nice suits with an aisle etc.

Well said on what it should be and so often instead is! I think a lot of people, despite best intentions, want the wedding more than the marriage I feel. But, for every vapid party planned for the sake of hyping up a single day in the course of a lifetime, there's other events/ceremonies that are soooo beautiful and pure - no matter how lavish or simple. Ahh, the spectrum of human experience. And I do enjoy those who have very nearly "traditional" marriages despite being a same sex couple - very true, why can't we? A big middle finger to greater society because anyone should be able to do what they want. The day celebrating your love together should match the couple's taste and personality. So, when you're chill and love a gathering of friends and into having a really fun time - that's my priority. And when you're marrying someone who is a self-described "bohemian type" (he's such a dork 💙) combine all that with cool lowkey rustic vibes. It's very loose ideas right now but it's going to be so great!

Feeling bashful about everything really. Why do I always fall into vulnerability on here, haha. But like I've said before, as long as people keep sticking around, there's gonna be a mix of fandoming and gossip and my diary I let my nameless, anonymous online friends take a peek at 🤭 It's therapeutic! Broken hearts, unfortunately yes. And mine has been shattered and in need of stitches several times as well. Nothing but gentle care these days. It's so strange and different. Even years on now. I don't know. Reality continues to shock me and I catch myself a lot like, why am I still surprised about all of this??? We are all always a work in progress and that's ok 🥲

GOSH the siblings, the siblings. Ok. Why not. This is getting long so under the cut:

Listen - I got a lot of brothers. I only regularly stay in contact with one of them 💁‍♂️ The jab was about... the hypocrisy of religious weddings sometimes? No shade if someone truly wants traditional or gets married in a church, totally fine. I have nothing against it!! I've been to some lovely church based wedding ceremonies. I am not religious. But... my siblings. They're suuuuch assholes and we weren't even big church goers growing up and I just remember sitting through several weddings as a teenager thinking it was so weird that they were up there pledging themselves to god like - what is this? Who is that for? The expectation of extended family and the families they were marrying into? My parents certainly didn't push it. Idk. I guess it's just the thing you do for most people. But it felt odd, knowing the person and if you've ever been to a catholic wedding in particular they are just so... ritualized? More so than other denominations? It was just really weird for me. Not about me, I know!! But, still. Family 🙄 Soapbox over. Maybe the teenage angst of the time overrides it all for me and that's what stuck 🤣

HORROR MOVIE CHALLENGE 2022 FAVES, HONORABLE MENTIONS & LEAST FAVES (AND THE ONES I COULDN'T FINISH)

Another year, another successful horror watch challenge finished. And with that comes my also annual tradition of looking back on the movies I watched and picking my faves and least faves. I was able to choose my faves a lot clearer this year I think, it was the least faves that took some narrowing down a bit.

As always I never make this list in order of preference. It's just going down the order of me watching them, but you can probably tell the ones I liked best from my enthusiasm talking about them. Anyway, let's start this thing.

FAVE WATCHES:

Scream - Now, this is more of a pity add tbh (it really should be in the Honorable Mentions section max truthfully) because I love the Scream movies. Anyone who knows me should know that. It's not the best one of the series but I had fun with it still. I just wish they would get creative with the formula at least just once cuz man ugh. Thank goodness for the OGs, even tho I enjoyed some of the newer kids, because I personally could not stand Melissa Barrera's lead character. It's a shame we're not getting Neve in this next sequel but trust, I will still be watching. At least we're getting Hayden back as Kirby so there's that. Please don't kill her off immediately!! She's too smart for that.

2. X - Anyone who may have actually kept up with me doing this challenge (are there actually people who do? From the likes I get on some of these posts, maybe), they'll know that I was pleasantly surprised by just how much I enjoyed this movie. It wasn't so much groundbreaking as it just was fun to watch. Mia Goth was a compelling enough lead with an ensemble cast full of familiar faces that had me invested to watch. It was the first fully successful watch of the challenge for me, which is great because that's usually when it really kicks into gear.

3. Titane - Say what you want about this movie, but after you watch it, you're not gonna be able to forget about it. The visuals, that plot, the acting. It's all a super wild ride that delivered on its "the most fucked up movie ever made" promise from its trailer. It may be unwatchable to some but like, this was truly memorable if anything. I know my work friend who loved it is gonna be proud that it made its way onto the Faves list. lol Also, gotta note, that poster is totally stunning.

4. Last Night in Soho - It has flaws for some people, but I honestly think it's a well-made movie with wonderful visuals, acting, and music. The whole aesthetic is just great. It's a spectacle with an ending that may leave the audience feeling divided. Regardless, I liked this and knew once I finished watching that it would totally make its way on this list.

5. Fall - This gets to be on the Faves list because even if it has its flaws or whatever, I really did end up pulling for the girls making this. Ginny (Virginia Gardner) from Runaways was the more compelling lead for me personally but overall, this worked because of the friendship at the core of it. It's a situational fear kinda horror movie so you have to be able to put yourself in their shoes to care. The way it was filmed made it really easy to I think. Def had me squirming in my seat so it earned its spot I think.

6. Orphan: First Kill - Now, was this on par with the original? No. Truthfully, not really. But I still had fun with it. So, it gets to have its spot on this list. Isabelle Fuhrman still kills it as Esther, despite the years in between this and the first movie. And Julia Stiles got to have fun with her role. Definitely full of flaws but that's part of its charm for me I think. Yes, I'll watch a third movie if they're really planning to do it cuz why not? lol

7. Bodies Bodies Bodies - I don't care what anyone says, I loved this movie. Horror comedies are my genre. Always will be. This was a solid one for me. Rachel Sennott definitely steals the show as Alice I think, but overall, the cast all gelled for me. Yes, even Pete. lol As I said in my post for it, my eyes stayed glued the whole time, which I think says a lot as far as I'm concerned for this challenge so props to everyone involved making this movie.

8. Prey - I liked this. It worked for me. Yes, another movie with a strong performance from a woman lead. It was a great year for women in horror as far as I'm concerned. Amber Midthunder was great in her role. The action sequences were really done well imo. I felt the tension. One of these days I'll actually watch the original Predator movies (yeah, I know lol) and this made me want to honestly so I can see how that original one holds up. Either way, I think this movie deserves its praise.

9. The Sadness - I'll admit, I'm surprised I'm putting it on my Faves list but out of the movies that originally made up the Honorable Mentions list before wanting to cut one (since I generally want to keep that to 5 movies or so), this is the one that I remember all too well how I was feeling when I watched this thing. It felt like an event. Not the most pleasant of ones, but it truly did. A total rollercoaster of emotions with a batshit craziness to it. It's a hard movie to recc but as far as zombie movies go, it's gonna be hard to forget by the usual standards because of just how depraved it gets. So buckle up if you end up checking it out.

10. Pearl - Aside from X and Nope, I think this movie was the big event of the challenge for me. I watched X, liked it, saw they were coming out with a prequel, and I waited eagerly until I could watch it. And well, Mia Goth killed it as far as I'm concerned. It is not a movie without its flaws. She may have went a little too dramatic at parts perhaps, (and maybe the big monologue could have been trimmed a bit) but girl left it all on the table with her performance. The story is simple but gives us just enough insight to really get Pearl's backstory. It's a non-typical slasher that is a character study first that mostly works for me honestly. Ti West has a style that is distinctly his and I appreciated his homages here. I can't wait for that third movie!!!

11. [Rec] - I liked this movie quite a bit. Found footage done right as far as I'm concerned. Certainly a rollercoaster once it gets going. The ending is totally stressful to watch imo. I may end up watching the sequels someday just because. We'll see. Regardless, I'm glad I finally watched this one. Lived up to the hype.

12. House of the Devil - Now, this is the Ti West movie that a lot of people may not have heard of before but I do think it's worth checking out if you like his filmography to see his journey as a director. Once again, a slow burner that pays homage to the horror movies that have come before. It's nothing that is reinventing the wheel but it's solid imo. I was rooting for Samantha to make it out of this thing alive. Loved seeing some familiar faces in there as well.

13. Saint Maud's - I don't know if I anticipated this being placed on the Faves list initially but I can't forget that lead performance by Morfydd Clark. She was just so good in her role. The visuals throughout were great and there was a chilling aesthetic the whole time. That ending was just plain bonkers. Can't help putting it on this list.

14. Nope - Now, despite this movie maybe not totally living up to my expectations (blame Jordan Peele's track record of blowing my mind with his stories), I gotta put it on the Faves list. Visually, this was an event. The cast was too good. I was invested. I can also appreciate the fact that Jordan went against the audience's expectations as well. I'm just glad this man is making movies for the horror genre honestly. Can't wait to see what he comes up with next.

15. Barbarian - I am so glad that I waited to watch this on Halloween because even if my watches after it never went quite on par with this movie's experience, it was a great way to end the challenge this year. I knew while watching it that it was gonna be on this list for sure. Great cast, solid script, nice direction. Idk what else to say but I personally enjoyed it.

HONORABLE MENTIONS

Watcher - This originally seemed like it might make its way onto the Faves early on because I wasn't sure how many watches I was going to like this year. It was a hit or miss with some as always. It feels like a tradition now that I have to watch a Maika Monroe horror movie at some point during a challenge, and this year I got to watch two. This was the better one for me. I felt her fear. The aesthetic was stylish. It was a simple movie with a big finish. A pleasant surprise. Also, I really love that poster.

2. Fresh - I think if I had liked this movie a little bit more it could have gotten on the Faves list instead of the Honorable Mentions but I do still think it was a good movie. Daisy was wonderful. Liked that her character did what she had to do to get out of her situation. So, she definitely made it easy to root for Noa.

3. Society - With an ending that is quite frankly one of the grossiest things I've ever seen on screen, I can't help but think this movie still deserves this spot. Definitely not leaving the memory bank any time soon. Very wild. Probably could have been stronger narratively but it does ask some interesting questions that may make you think. The effects are impressive for sure. It's gonna make you uncomfortable but if you're into that sort of thing (I didn't think I was but okay lol), it's kinda worth it??

4. We Are Still Here - When I was watching this, I don't think I expected to put it on the Faves or even this list but the more I think on it, I kinda liked it. I watched it for Barbara Crampton but as a slow burner, it did work enough for me. There's plot things keeping me from being able to put it on the Faves level, but considering it took me a minute to get invested while watching, it's impressive that it's on at least this one. But the overall feel and the acting makes it feel deserved so there's that.

5. May & Sissy - As always I was having a hard time picking my last spot for this because even though these movies may have their flaws, I can't help looking back on both of these performances. Both were great and honestly, their narratives are quite similiar. At the core of it, it's a story centered on a socially awkward woman who just wants to be accepted by others, and yet, you can tell that's still not enough for them. They need more. These movies start as character studies that gradually become slashers. Not too much different from Pearl tbh. I preferred that movie to these, but both still are worth watching imo. Tho more May I'd say probably, but I love Aisha Dee as an actress so I had to add Sissy here. lol

LEAST FAVE WATCHES

The Rental - Now while not completely awful, this was not a great second watch for the challenge because, despite a stellar cast, I was not invested at all. The characters were not likable, even poor Jeremy Allen White's because the writing makes him pitiful imo. As a directorial debut by Dave Franco, I think it showed promise for him if he chooses to make more movies in the future. But I gotta put it on the list because I was really disappointed with how average it was with the talent involved with it. The ending just made me think what was the point of the whole thing if we're not invested with the characters at all.

2. Old - I remember this movie making me mad. lol Like, I just didn't like it at all. I even went into it knowing that I would most likely be disappointed, and yet, with this challenge sometimes I feel like I need to actually watch these things to know I'm right. The concept was intriguing but the execution was not good imo. The plot holes!! M. Night Shyamalan is a hit or miss with his movies tbh and I tried to go into it with an open mind knowing that fact. At least if I had been having fun watching it I could have excused it, but even with the notable faces in there, I just couldn't enjoy it. Sorry, you can't help how you feel about movies sometimes.

3. Who Invited Them - This felt like such a non-horror movie for too long to even be called a slow burner imo. Because it focused on the couple's problems too much instead of creating actual tension to make us worried if they were gonna survive or not. And then when the horror element came in, it came in too quickly like it was tacked on so they could deem it a horror movie. And the ending is plothole central. I can't. Overall, it was boring. Shudder originals are such a hit-or miss tbh.

4. Antichrist - This shit was kinda wild but had me so confused. lol I get it's an arthouse film at the end of the day but it's clearly not meant for me. I commend Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg for their performances, that's the best part along with the cinematography. The whole thing was quite a fever dream. I still can't believe the way they chose to depict that opening scene. Still a major WTF. But I guess I won't forget it. lol

5. They/Them - As a horror movie, this was not good imo. It totally forgets it's a horror movie until near the end. The killer aspect feels tacked on. There really does need to be more LGBTQ rep in horror, that is a given. This was a great opportunity for that with a cast showing wonderful potential but the execution is what I can't get over. But as I've said before in my post, with a concept like this, if you take away the masked killer aspect, you had a good movie in there, save for some cringey moments (particularly that scene where they sing Pink a little way too long for my taste personally) I wanted to give this a chance, despite the super bad rating, but I was disappointed.

6. Umma - I wanted to like this so bad for Sandra Oh because she's truly superb and Fivel Stewart gave her nice support but this turned out to be a snoozer. I really tried but I gotta agree with the haters cuz this was not worth checking out sadly. Unfortunately, the bad IMDB rating was earned. It should have been so much better than it was. No tension and way too many jumpscares are a horrible combo. Those two things for me are a no-no.

7. The Keep - Now, while the actual demon was cringey for me even by 80's standards, I wouldn't have necessarily put this movie on this particular list for that reason alone if it had at least made sense narratively. But it didn't. Too many plot points missing. But I won't blame Michael Mann on this since we never got the full vision. Let's blame the studio heads for not at least letting us see if it would have been clearer with that extra footage needed. Because you can tell it was meant to be this big epic that sadly isn't coherent as it should be without it. But hey, there were some good actors in there so that was cool.

8. Queen of the Damned - Honestly, this movie would have benefitted from having even more Aaliyah in it because she was my favorite part of the whole thing. I appreciated how she just went for it. And she was stunning as ever. Still sad we lost her way too soon. Otherwise, I could have gone without ever watching this movie. Lestat should not have been the main focus, I'm sorry. Stuart Townsend tried but I just feel like he never embodied that character the way he was meant to. The story was weak. As I said, aside from watching Aaliyah, the music is the very best thing about it so there's that. lol

9. Possession - I really wanted to add one of the movie posters because at least that was cool but stupid Tumblr with their stupid 30-image limit in posts like these. Oh well. As I already said in my post for it, I was very disappointed with this and was also very confused. The scream matches throughout got super old quickly. I barely felt invested at all. Isabelle Adjani & Sam Neill were giving it all they had but that doesn't change the fact that it was overly dramatic at parts. I couldn't even tell if it was trying to be campy. I promise I tried to give it a chance but from the very beginning, I had a feeling this was going to be on this list.

10. Halloween Ends - Honestly, it pains me that this had be added to this list after Halloween Kills had been on it for last year's but well... Sorry, this just does not feel like this is how the trilogy was supposed to end. You do not center a final movie around a new character that you're banking an audience to get invested in. Rohan Campbell did the best he could acting-wise, I am not knocking him for that. But everyone knows this was supposed to be about Laurie vs. Michael. I don't care how anyone tries to spin it, that's just a fact. At the very least, that was the expectation. And on top of that, after diving into almost complete parody in Kills, they went almost too serious with this one. Where was the fun? I'll admit the opening and the ending stood out as I'm sure they were hoping for, but that middle... I'm just so torn about everything involving this movie I guess. lol It could have been so much better. I don't know what else to say. For some people Halloween III would probably be in this spot over Halloween Ends, but nope. Even with that movie's flaws, it's not really pretending to be anything other than what it is so I'm not gonna put it here.

(The only reason why Knock Knock didn't make it on this list was because it was meant as a hate watch and I never expected it to be a fave or change my mind what it was going to be. Also, I really wanted to keep the list to just 10 this year. Antlers almost made it on here as well.)

COULDN'T FINISH (new section just cuz lol)

Broadcast Signal Intrusion - Sorry Harry Shum Jr. I tried so hard to watch this one for you, and I almost made it to the end but I was soooo bored and confused. At one point, it had gotten my full attention, and then immediately lost it before I ended up calling it quits. Just was not for me I guess.

2. Choose or Die - I struggle watched this for like 15 minutes max before turning it off because I could tell instantly that this was not going to be my cup of tea. And I do not regret that decision at all. The second I saw how gory it was going to be with a plot that did not have me, I knew it was time to tune out. My work friend who is usually more game for these kinda concepts was not feeling it either so that makes me feel even better about that decision. lol

3. The Killing of a Sacred Deer - I started this and did not get too far with it because something about it just felt a little too... pretentious?? Idk. I like both the leads as actors so I wanted to check it out. But I couldn't get into it. I know based on that IMDB rating that it clearly has some fans so maybe I can check it out again in the future but this definitely turned out to not be that year I guess. heh

There were probably a few more movies that I could have listed for that last category but these are the ones I remember off the top of my head. These lists are always really hard for me to put together because let's face it, I'm no movie critic. I don't pretend to be but I have particular taste. I try to keep an open mind and I have fun with this challenge. And I like ranting about my watches at the end here. lol Anyway, another challenge done. Here's to next year!

[mahalshairyballs]

The state of my Moon Knight ships right now

So you have

Marc x Layla (of course) - they'll get back together and their relationship will be stronger than ever (with a lot of work ofc)

Steven x Layla - Marc will give him the green light about it soon-ish after they're back in London.

Jake x Duchamp/Frenchie (still doesn't know how to call him in a way that doesn't sound weird to me ><). - I've already talked about this one but it's Jake's first real relationship and he cares *a lot* about Duchamp.

And then Marc x Steven - Marc is reluctant and finds it weird but Steven's too smitten to care whether it's weird or not.

Steven x Layla x Marc - of course, it'll get there, I'm pretty sure. I'm still not sure how exactly they'll make it work

And then,

There's special ones of

Jake & Layla - which is the aro-ship ? Don't think they'll fall in love, they just have a strong friendship...and great sex

Steven & Frenchie - if Jake&Layla is the aro-ship, then Steven&Frenchie is the ace ship. Steven will probably fall for him in one way or another, but he's not interested in doing anything sexual with him the only man he wants to do it with is Marc. Steven is the 'staightest' of the boys to me. Idk it's fun to have the ''less alpha'' guy as the only one who's really straight(-ish).

And then maybe...

Jake x Matt Murdock - I just...really see it now ? Blame the new Daredevil reactions I found. It'd work really well imo. Same as....

Marc x Matt Murdock - I also really like it. Think it's Matt who's gonna break Marc's 'pretend to be straight' act. Because look at him, this handsome lawyer with his smooth ways, who could resist? No one! Not even Marc!

.

So they all have three-ish relationships and everyone is shared by two of them? That's kinda what it gave me lol.

Is there too many men in this? Yes, yes there are. Is anyone surprised? No we are not.

Jake has girlfriends but they're not really serious relationships. Maybe he'll have a more serious girlfriend eventually, who will it be ? Idk. Suggestions are open.

Marc & Steven don't want to be with any other woman than Layla. And Steven's relationships with men are two particular cases with their specificities.

Marc's relationship with Matt will be pretty far in the future, and also an unusual, if more traditional, one because let's face it it'd be two trash babies together.

So poly?

Poly.

I have a very hard time not doing poly-ships these days.

Tl;dr Marc/Layla Marc/Steven Marc/Steven/Layla, Jake/Frenchie, Jake&Layla, StevenxFrenchie and Jake/Matt Marc/Matt

emo truthing the dream smp

'oh some of these songs aren't TECHNICALLY emo they're pop pun-" ok. dont care.

also yes i am aware some of these bands are shitty people please do not try and make this seem like im supporting these bands actions i am simply just a music nerd

if u think i am wrong about any of these lmk i love discussing this stuff

theres no fall out boy here bc i know i can write a whole other post about fall out boy

first of all the obvious - vegas lights and las nevadas. i dont think i need to go further into that.

royal - waterparks - george

- "im proof of consequences" sir literally is the embodiment of this line. slept through an election and well. we saw how that turned out

- 'im two faced from your double exposure' in reference to his relationship to both dream and dreamXD

- "i wish i was royal but im not" man got dethroned

- "im doing alright, but is alright enough?" idk man i just think this line kinda got that george energy

- "i fall in love with everything that wants nothing to do with me" is the main line where im like hm idk if this fits george but also does dreamXD really love george? or does he just see a humanity in george he cant find in himself?

- "i know that theres no dealing with the way im feeling, im so out of touch with everyone and everythings a blur to me" lol!

i think check yes juliet by we the kings can apply to multiple ships but im gonna apply it to awesamponk purely for the line 'they'll tear us apart' because thats incredibly funny to me.

theres a good reason these tables are numbered honey, you just havent thought of it yet - panic! - early lmanberg wilbur (tbh some of it can also definitely apply to pogtopia wilbur)

- 'from that moment you'll be out of place and underdressed' the no armour rule

- 'i'm wrecking this evening already and loving every minute of it, ruining this banquet for the mildly inspiring' CMON TELL ME THIS LINE ISNT EARLY LMANBERG WILBUR

do i even need to put analysis this shit is writing itself. wouldnt be surprised if wilbur listened to this at some point while writing the lmanberg arc

- "oh and the smokes in that cigarette box ... laced with nitroglycerine" is definitely more a pogtopia wilbur line but. wilbur is wilbur <3

king for a day - pierce the veil - exile arc tommy

im so passionate about this one.

the s/ic/de attempts in the nether and in logstedshire. tommy being a red coded character.

clearly about his relationship with dream. also the whole line about being a martyr and the idea that tommy still worshipped prime in exile ?????

he was put into exile to 'think about what he did' in reference to burning george's house down. he had to beg for dream not to burn his things.

haha anyone remember when he hallucinated tubbo coming to visit him?

ghost in the walls... haha.... ghostbur....

finally:

anyways king for a day is the tommy exile arc song.

other connections i have made but do not have the energy or passion to justify:

ignorance - paramore - quackity (actually i might make another post and talk about this bc god)

jack manifold and gives you hell by all american rejects

tubbo and the anthem by good charlotte

missing you by all time low i can see for both crimeboys and clingyduo

shut up and kiss me by marianas trench and early karlity (ie the one lil bit before karlnapity became a trio)

[morathicain]

i really do not like wai lol. not only did he out pran (and pat!) but for the whole ep he’s going around acting like *he’s* the victim?? i was glad at least pat & korn were mentioning how wai was acting way too damn stubborn over this whole situation but i literally wanted to shake pran. like pran sweetie! you should not be begging this man for forgiveness!! honestly that little kid back in ep6 was right! sometimes it’s ok to cut off certain “friends” especially when they’re pulling shit like this! i mean i’m sure pran & wai have their friendship history so i can understand the complexities behind pran acting this way, but watching him apologize to wai was so.. ugh. i wanted to protect him.

but let me stop talking about wai and talk about what really matters like INKPA!!!!! those two are going to have me pass out! when pa hopped off that step to say that anyone taller than her is fine?? while looking directly up at ink????? asdjkdflskdf and don’t even get me started on ink bending to look pa straight in the eye to ask pa if she’s comfortable w her??? and the way pa said she’s comfortable so quickly i— we are really catching her gay awakening in 4k lmao.

also! pat & pran throughout this entire episode had me ~floating~. will i ever get over how clingy pat is with pran? no. will i ever get over how even though pran acts like he doesn’t like it his lil dimples can’t hide how much he actually loves it? no (the amount of times i replayed the washing dishes moment!!). and pran being so open w his relationship w pat, even in front of his friends! my heart is bursting. and just in general i’m so happy w some of the things they addressed? like their whole conversation about sexuality, and how they were so open about their feelings and their own self-discovery. and pa shading that “i’m straight but __ is the only guy i like” line had me choking lmao. even by the end too, when pran talked through w pat why he shouldn’t keep calling him wifey, how being called boyfriend is enough. each of those moments were just so refreshing and made me fall in love w this show even more😭 i truly can’t wait for you to see this episode🥰 i hope you’re having a good holiday and end of the year~~^^ -🥞

Hey Pancake and thank you so so so much for your ask! 😊💕 Sorry for taking a while to answer but I finally managed to find a moment for myself to watch it. And damn I loved it!

I do agree with you, Wai doesn't deserve Pran's friendship. He's manipulative and has no right to be angry or behave the way he does. And yes, I am glad he's being shaded the whole episode. It surely is difficult to cut off a friend and Pran already feels so guilty for his feelings and Wai was being shitty AF but I do hope he's going to support and protect them from now on! Cutting him off would have been better from the outside but it IS difficult to do in a friendship so I am torn. Definitely glad tho that Pat and Pran stayed together and had each other's backs and didn't sway from that. Not for Wai, not for anyone till now. Next week we'll see how it will work out with their parents but I do believe they'll give their best to support each other ❤️

InkPha just had me screaming! Pha is truly slowly having her gay awakening and damn, Ink was testing the water! Loved every second of it and am hyped for their next scenes!

Also, let's not forget Korn. What an ass and what a hero! Absolutely love him! Now we see why Pat is friends with him, even tho he seems surprised as well. Definitely love it 😊

Thank you for ranting at me about those two again, I loved to read it! Happy holidays and all the best to you! Have a wonderful day/night 😊

[yaz-the-spaz]

Just your own opinion, but how do you think they'll will end both babygates?

i really don’t know nonnie...there’s multiple routes they could go…

[under the cut for those who may not wanna see]

for liam:

there was already the little bit of seeding (though where it actually originated idk but it’s just interesting that it was circulated in general and was seemingly positively accepted as a plausible story by some het stans) that he’s not the biological father but that he’s just such a nice person that he agreed to help care for/raise the kid as his own, so there’s always the option of circulating/publishing that more widely until it becomes a more known and accepted “fact” for the het stans and gp to fall back on

for zayn, as things stand right now they could go either:

-m**carriage

-paternity switcheroo/surprise paternity announcement

-claim zayn’s the father and he’s stuck in this mess indefinitely (until he inevitably pulls a tom cruise and forgets her or the child even exist lol)

in my headcanon, the second one is fueled largely by the fact that the hadids haven’t technically mentioned zayn by name as the father. i’m told that when directly asked on fallon about who the father was, g actually evaded confirming herself that it was zayn and hasn’t confirmed by name anywhere else i don’t think (??) that zayn is actually the father, and so far all she’s really done is post two pictures with him, only one of which was with his “face” showing - that might i add is highly questionable and has been heavily scrutinized and picked apart by anyone who actually knows what zayn looks like lol - so that’s the only real thing that’s even implicated him in all this for the most part which you could argue is not super substantial lol. they’ve never even officially confirmed they were “back together” i don’t think, cause this whole iteration of z*gi attempt #2,859,025 it’s pretty much just been occasional pics of them hugging or walking next to each other and just implied that they’re back together but no official word i don’t think. and right now it’s also mostly just been tabloids carrying the story that zayn’s the father and no actual name confirmation from either the hadid or the malik camp. so combine that with the fact that both zayn and his family have been pretty much radio silent (and quite shady in their obvious ignoring of it all lol) about this alleged coming child and his supposed fatherhood AND with g’s father dismissing the baby chatter as “rumors” and one could hypothetically foresee them going the route of: well yes she is pregnant (but by someone else lol) and the part that was the rumor was that zayn’s the father, the truth is she and zayn have just remained close friends and he’s been very supportive of her during this time and will always love and care for her blah, blah, blah…and queue the announcement of the “actual” father as some bigger brighter star who she’s been “secretly dating” who would probably be much more willing to participate in this nonsense than zayn (or who actually is the father lol?)

but that’s of course all wishful thinking and highly unlikely and right now either the tom cruise route or the m**carriage route unfortunately seems the most likely. especially given that the whole (more obvious) paternity test route hasn’t been embarked on in either of the previous babygates (so basically why should we believe they’d do it now) and also wouldn’t even really make as much sense here narratively cause ofc they always wanna paint g as the sweet saintly princess and having zayn demand a paternity test would just sow a story of mistrust in hollywood’s favorite It Couple and make it look as if he had reason to think g might be sleeping around which they would never go for. they’re not gonna let their most prized cash cow darling little innocent princess have her image tarnished by getting painted as someone who cheats and sleeps around so much she got knocked up by some rando and then used the pregnancy to try to trap zayn. in fact the tabloid stories i’ve seen running are the exact opposite, trying to make it seem like zayn’s the one who trapped HER because apparently all this time he was just sooo lovesick and just pining and waiting and oh so desperately hoping for a reason for them to get back together and stay together and now he “has one” 🤮

anyway to me the other two options depend heavily on if there even actually is a real baby or not. if there is then the tom cruise route is sadly the more likely play, which would mean that zayn is stuck in the same boat as lou and li for quite a while, though expect minimal participation on his part if any (probably while looking absolutely dead inside) and probably also a healthy side of the obligatory unreliable father narrative (or just plain shitty father narrative). on the other hand, if there is no baby (like i suspect for a multitude of reasons) then…obviously m**carriage story is the way to go and it’s awful and i wish it wasn’t even something i had to consider but i also wish none of this was something i even had to consider or think about at all lol so yeah…

alternatively there’s always a possibility that there’s some other route that hasn’t even crossed my mind/isn’t even on my radar that they could go, but…remains to be seen i suppose. anyway short story long (as usual lol), those are my thoughts as it stands right now…

Janis & Jimmy

Janis: Ready for 💔 💔 💔? Jimmy: didn't bring a 🎻 in but there'll probably be a 🌧 about in a bit so go on Janis: Clearly you didn't watch enough back to school hauls to adequately prepare yourself Janis: 🙄🙄 Janis: you'll never guess who found her way to the 'how to catch a man' side of youtube though Jimmy: if it's Helena I really am fucking gutted Janis: Unlikely Janis: less she starts making a big deal out of how her MASSIVE TITS are slowly crippling her Janis: 🐰 has gone full 🐰🥘🥣 Jimmy: what the fuck kind of emojis are them?

Janis: I'll be fine going to my nans, for me Janis: I don't know what's better for you Janis: yeah, I can delay it now, or let it be less tonight than it COULD be Janis: but neither of those feels good Janis: so I just wanna do what you want Jimmy: so stay Janis: okay Jimmy: okay Janis: we could get rid of him the old-fashioned way Jimmy: stop flirting with me Jimmy: I'll get lost Janis: seriously Janis: how hard can it be Jimmy: piss easy if you don't care about the bit where you get caught Jimmy: how you gonna walk my 🐕 from prison? Janis: well that's why we do it properly Janis: just need to do the groundwork Janis: keep slyly telling any nosy neighbours you're moving back soon because he's lost his job, so they don't @ him Janis: then backdate a resignation letter to send to his work Jimmy: then what? Jimmy: can't actually piss off back up north without the dickhead Janis: well, you could, ferry is well cheap Janis: what you'd do when you get there is another issue Jimmy: keep dreaming, baby Jimmy: it's never gonna happen Jimmy: you're stuck with me for a bit Janis: I don't want you to leave anyway Janis: not my dream Jimmy: what'd you bring it up for then?

Jimmy: not what I were gonna say Janis: they are Janis: try and distance myself from it but Jimmy: if we were judging each other by our family I'd come off loads worse Jimmy: no tah Janis: no need to have the competition Jimmy: 'cause you're losing Janis: nah Jimmy: yeah Jimmy: 🏆 goes to me Janis: nope no no no nah Janis: you have no idea and you don't need it Jimmy: alright, stop going on about it and 🗨 something you want me to know Janis: 😳 Jimmy: go on Janis: bit on the spot, like you say Jimmy: but you're 💭 about something or you wouldn't be 😳 Janis: too bad you're not a 🧠📖 Jimmy: just have to read your body language instead Jimmy: [show up sir] Janis: ['scuse us random park people, biggest run and hug ever] Jimmy: [holding onto her for the longest time and we're not sorry] Janis: [lowkey like don't cry gal, so overwhelmed and drunk dangerous combo here] Jimmy: [gal we know all about trying not to cry Imma get you out of here asap] Janis: [not letting you say anything intelligible yet] Jimmy: [it's fine we're totally picking her up so we can leave] Janis: [soz not soz to the lads who clearly thought you were about to get off with them or something] Jimmy: [bye bye boys have fun] Janis: [hope you're near enough to his lads 'I'm really sorry'] Jimmy: ['it's alright' cos it is and snuggling her as we carry her like] Janis: [sighs 'it's not' but we mean everything else so we're snuggling him back even harder Jimmy: [kissing the top of her head like yeah it is] Janis: ['you're the loveliest, that's what I want you to know'] Jimmy: [clearly 😳 about this because not what we expected her to say but we're also doing a little genuine smile so] Janis: [just softly stroking his cheeks though you probably can't even see in this light/state we just know, about to blurt something about but just about catching ourselves 'tell me something then'] Jimmy: ['are you gonna remember it?' cos we gonna catch ourselves too before being too extra] Janis: ['yes!' indignantly like how dare you, nudging him like go on 'I'll tell you another if you do'] Jimmy: ['alright, one thing I want you to know is how much this means' keeping it deliberately vague as if we're just talking about the Ian situation because we clearly aren't lol 'to me that you-that you're-' still not finishing our sentences though soz about it] Janis: [squeezing him wherever you're holding onto him, but gently please let's not fall and die here although 'I love you' not leaving like a sec here 'like I care about you, you know' and how rushed that last bit is like and I oop] Jimmy: [we've straight up died so whatever we say back is too muffled to understand because we're hardcore hiding in the bae and also using our softest voice ever] Janis: [casual panic happening in silence here but we move, meant it and can't take it back so at least you're drunk enough that you can't really try to run away rn] Jimmy: [lifting our head when she moves because we think she's gonna try and run away and that's a hard no from us 'always gotta one up me, you' but we're still using our soft voice so you know it's not a pisstake 'not gonna win the awards against you but I care about you an' all'] Janis: [shrugs like yes, that's what it was, of course 'just that good'] Jimmy: ['I know' giving her 😍 as we say it because we mean it] Janis: [going in for a makeout moment] Jimmy: [allowing it because he also meant it when he said he missed her and the feels are too high not to even though she's drunk and he's obvs not] Janis: [it's fine, we know we're being extra with it because we are drunk so it's not like you've got it wrong boy] Jimmy: [we're being extra too cos we're in our emotions and I don't trust you to speak rn sir, always makes me laugh like how far have we even gotten away from this park] Janis: [seriously, like you already said it girl you better stop lmao, I hope far enough that we're not giving a free show, also you're nearly at his but probably not knowing y'all] Jimmy: [hope you're at least off this estate so we're not getting whistled and shouted at by chavs cos that'll really ruin the moment] Janis: [like get that you're both in this moment but there's only so much you can ignore really] Jimmy: [I'll make it rain or snow if I have to lads so that'll move along, don't test me] Janis: [least you're gonna have some urgency by how hard we're going rn 'cos no shame] Jimmy: [an incentive to get home is very much needed cos Ian will be a delight] Janis: [I'm like gal do not speak that could be disastrous] Jimmy: [going upstairs immediately for all the reasons] Janis: [can't come for Ian and his life, it'd be amusing but make everything worse so not rn, in that bed tah] Jimmy: [we'll give you other opportunities gal but this is not the one] Janis: [not when you're drunk, not gonna be witty, just like fuck you bitch] Jimmy: [it's gonna be ages before you get back anyway cos we know y'all will keep stopping, never any chill] Janis: [we all know it, there is no chill now or ever] Jimmy: [hence I am making you walk, not letting you anywhere near a bus or anything rn] Janis: [do we wanna skip to being at his or to the AM or quoiiiii] Jimmy: [good question, we can probably skip to later at his because you can't avoid Ian forever, even if we're kind and say he's not around when they first get there] Janis: [what's your vibe like is he gonna come in and make Jimmy come out to talk or ambush him like what's the tea sis] Jimmy: [I feel like Jimothy's gonna have to go make tea at some point because it's his love language so he'll probably get ambushed in the kitchen then] Janis: [ugh SIR] Jimmy: [is nothing sacred you bitch, but at least she'll be upstairs so she can't brawl him and Twix will run up cos she will be scared so that'll distract you gal] Janis: [like if we heard brawling ourselves we would come down but I'd like to hope you're keeping it to shouting rn, have some shame dickhead, just look after this baby dog] Jimmy: [I would hope he is just shouting because he's that dickhead that wants to appear like he's not one and like what's to stop Janis telling literally everyone including her social worker nan so] Janis: [right, even if you think she's trash, I don't think you're being that dumb with it ever] Jimmy: [shamelessly just gonna bring the bae tea and biscuits as if that didn't happen] Janis: [trying not to be like !!! but we're also not gonna pretend as hard, patting the bed like come here] Jimmy: [obvs we do and do a feelsy lean when we're there cos we both need it] Janis: ['really wants Lucas to like him' because we know there's fuck all we can actually say to be of use, but we're tucking him back in and cuddling him] Jimmy: [a little lol because 1. funny 2. not what we expected her to say 3. relief that she hasn't said something that'll make it awks and that Ian didn't kick off any harder/try and kick her out] Janis: [equally small smile 'cos we love to see it but we do not love the rest of this situation so we're not buzzing obviously] Jimmy: [draw it bigger with our fingertip because we've remembered our 😁 challenge] Janis: [write LOL on him like okay, whilst we're here let's sort that out] Jimmy: [do some !! on her like epic lols please] Janis: [go to tickle him like it can be arranged] Jimmy: [obvs tickling her back like excuse you it's meant to be you doing it] Janis: [we are loling but still trying to tickle him and get him too] Jimmy: [never far from a playfight which I love for you and also I imagine that Twix is probably still around so joining in] Janis: [don't bark gal or do because we don't care about you Ian but bit rude to Cass, just pinning him and being like 'my offer still stands' which like, explain yourself but we're not lol] Jimmy: [also don't spill that tea or crush those biscuits/ let Twix get either of them while you're living your best life, obvs giving her a look like ?] Janis: [my boo always so concerned about the tea situation, runs a finger along his throat and looks meaningfully at the door like you know who] Jimmy: [I am and I'm not soz boo, but jimothy meanwhile is gonna just give you a lovebite/go over an existing one on your throat gal like I'd rather just kill you thank you] Janis: [doing the opposite of complaining about it] Jimmy: [taking the encouragement and going harder as a result of it duh] Janis: [when you can't breathe casually, pulling him closer into us 'please'] Jimmy: [kick that dog out so she doesn't cockblock you soz Twix, casually looks like you're like nope and leaving] Janis: [Twix is probably 🥺 but we definitely are x2 🥺🥺] Jimmy: [don't worry we're running back immediately to kiss you INTENSELY] Janis: [getting in his lap, duh, and looking at him for ages 'lovely' like yes, I was correct] Jimmy: [putting his finger on her nose like he's pointing at her cos no you] Janis: [grabbing the finger and then we're holding both his hands 'how am I going to make you happy?'] Jimmy: ['you already have done' because true that we've already forgotten about Ian's bullshit lbr cos we're in love] Janis: ['I could do better' 'you deserve better'] Jimmy: ['you just wanna take the challenge off me' because we can't even deal with our emotions over her saying that] Janis: ['I just wanna-' and kissing him again like let me show you] Jimmy: [a very enthusiastic response in all the ways possible because same] Janis: [have your moment kiddos, cannot express how much she's calling him baby] Jimmy: [cannot overstate how into that he is and will forever be] Janis: [being a perfect combo of intense but soft rn] Jimmy: [Cass gonna wish she was deaf too, first Ian shouting and now this lol] Janis: [thank god for headphones gal soz still not gonna be our fan for a while lol] Jimmy: [she's really not cos already had to dump Bobby on her when we had work then had to find Janis and now all this is shamelessly going on, soz gal] Janis: [it's fine, we'd hate us too in your position and we will win you 'round in the end] Jimmy: [I'm sure Jimothy will also do something to make it up to you cos he's just that bitch even though he's fuming at you for not walking Twix ever] Janis: [lowkey don't deserve it but you lucky gal and not shading you too hard] Jimmy: [we all know you're strugging rn gal it's okay] Janis: [not helping your brother but this isn't meant to be your job any more than it's meant to be his] Jimmy: [and we'll let you get your bf and friends soon and then you can walk Twix together] Janis: [and you'll be happy, despite the fact you go back up north, that's your business hen] Jimmy: [what if he sends her a valentine and that's what starts this lil otp] Janis: [that would be very cute do it] Jimmy: [like idk if he goes to your school or if he's putting in through your door or if he even signs it but we know bitch] Janis: [we should be nice and say he goes to your school so you have company but it should be a ? 'cos that's cute, I've only ever got one of those and it was from nannie haha] Jimmy: [I've derailed us but yeah that felt like a nice thing to happen amidst all the drama] Janis: [hohaha you'd be so embarrassed gal, be nice Jimothy aka shamelessly tease her] Jimmy: [simply must] Janis: [but yes, we're probably good for tonight unless you really wanna 'round 2 Ian] Jimmy: [do you wanna do the am?] Janis: [sure ting honey, it's a tuesday, so you'll be having to get Bobby ready for school and Ian will be gone so that's good] Jimmy: [leaving the bae in bed while we do our big brother duties but we will be bringing you breakfast gal you know it] Janis: 👋😪 Janis: you want any help? Jimmy: did I teach you the signs for hurry the fuck up? Janis: 🤔 Janis: [clip of her doing the thing where you gesture towards yourself frantically like LETS GO] Janis: ? Jimmy: that'd do Janis: does he know I'm here? Jimmy: he'd have come to ask you loads of questions about his missus if he did Janis: 💔 ouch Jimmy: if you fancy jumping out at him, the 🐕'll give you a hand knocking him about and getting his attention Janis: I'm not that offended Janis: be a bit rude Janis: plus if your sister knows I'm here, she definitely wants to see me even less Jimmy: but I might want to Jimmy: bit rude of you not to think about that Janis: Please Janis: I think about you ALL the time Janis: and you've seen a lot of me lately Jimmy: 🥺🥺🥺 Jimmy: me and the 🐕 are having a 💔💪🏆 Janis: she's FUMING at me Janis: I went to the bathroom and she was giving me 🔪🔪👀 Jimmy: the 🐕 or my sister?

Janis: it's impossible he's not heard what your sister wants Janis: ignoring it is another issue Jimmy: yeah Janis: anyway Jimmy: what he's too thick to work out is that she wants a person not a place Jimmy: that's how he reckons he can make it work here with his 🎁💰🐕 Janis: guess he can't give that anywhere Jimmy: he could give her her mates back who were there and know about it, instead of this bollocks where it only gets 🗨 for each new Sharon who comes about Janis: so tell her to do it Jimmy: what makes you think I can tell her to do owt Janis: it's what she wants to do, so help her do it so she doesn't fuck it up Jimmy: she's a kid, I'm not helping her piss off on her own Janis: not permanently Janis: just so he has to do something about it Jimmy: no Janis: alright Jimmy: it's not alright, what the fuck's wrong with you?

Janis: yes Janis: do you need to come in? Jimmy: come out Janis: ok Janis: [do that quickly 'cos we've clearly just been waiting] Jimmy: [I dread to think the state of this poor boy just trying not to cry outside mcvickers gaff like hey] Janis: [we're gonna be really shocked but pretending hard not to be like okay, just trying to survey the damage 'what do you need me to do?'] Jimmy: [show her your shoulder boy like nbd just casually pop this back into place because we're lowkey in shock here hence we told her to come outside even though you're gonna have to go in because you have to do this while he's lying on a bed you can't just do it here] Janis: [just gonna lead you inside without touching you or saying anything, just gesturing like come on 'it's okay' which is the furthest thing from the truth but what else can you say rn] Jimmy: [thank god you can trust her not only to do this but to not tell anyone because what a big ask when we're literally a month in] Janis: [lowkey, thank god you have a room here too, gonna rip your top off instead of trying to get it off 'cos impossible and bunching it in a way to make a decent gag because don't need to bite through your tongue or scream the house down, letting him get ready in that much and getting on the bed but not giving him loads of warning because best way to do it] Jimmy: [last we need is Libi or mcvickers rocking up and interrupting any of this so well played gal because he is not in a headspace to be helpful rn] Janis: [at least its one of those things where it's better once it's done so that'll be some minor relief for you, still, 'sorry' though 'cos it's fucking gnarly 'wait here' and going out to the bathroom, thank god they're old and probably have some decent painkillers, have to cross that bridge later when they think you've taken 'em for fun gal] Jimmy: [if he was thinking clearly he would not have come here because you already know too much gal and more importantly isn't not fair to make you do this when you're literally supposed to get xrays and shit first but here we are and you know he's saying sorry too and also trying to stop her from leaving even though she's literally just going too the bathroom and we realistically know that] Janis: [just keep telling him it's okay over and over 'we need to get you comfortable, okay? then we'll-' trail off 'cos we don't know and we know that's gonna be a journey to get there] Jimmy: [just nod because we know she's not wrong you do need those painkillers] Janis: [get as many of them down you as is safe boy, thanks for having a decent stash guys, also bandages we're gonna try to make use of now, taking his hand gently 'do you think any of the fingers are broken?'] Jimmy: [they gonna be suss about where all this has gone you're gonna have to lie convincingly gal, but for now we're just moving all our fingers by like messing about doing the signing alphabet and stuff like cos I'm gonna let you live and say they are okay] Janis: [sigh of relief like okay, we don't need to splint any of those, checking to see if he can bend his arm and how high he can etc before settling on splinting the whole forearm and then doing a sling 'he does realize you'll probably have to take more time off school now, where's the fucking sense in that' basically to ourselves and under our breath 'cos we know it's not logical and also not really about that] Jimmy: [didn't realise when you were having all that fun fake nursing each other that it would come to this, did you lads? ugh Ian, but jimothy is just getting ready to go when she's done this like okay thanks bye as if I'm just gonna let you walk out and go back to big brother duties and whatever else you're thinking about rn sir] Janis: [putting a hand out like stop 'you can't just go back'] Jimmy: ['I can't just stay here' like you literally can boy it's okay] Janis: '[just sit down, you need to give yourself chance to catch up'] Jimmy: [when you do sit down without arguing or saying anything pisstakey and it's so unlike him that we all hate it] Janis: [sit in silent shock for a sec guys 'you know you can't let him do this again' 'you will end up in hospital'] Jimmy: ['you're acting like there's owt else I can do that I've not'] Janis: ['that isn't what I'm saying' 'this isn't working, not any more'] Jimmy: ['What then, you still want me to tell Cass to crack on making him more fuming than I ever have done, knowing what he's like?] Janis: ['has he hit her?'] Jimmy: ['not yet'] Janis: ['you're gonna have to consider possibilities you don't like, you can't live like this'] Jimmy: ['there ain't a possibility I've not, I've been living like this for ages'] Janis: ['this isn't just discipline or whatever the fuck, it's assault and he knows that, wouldn't you be better off without him?'] Jimmy: ['where do you reckon we'd go? They're not better off without me'] Janis: ['I don't know, all I know is, he gives you any more injuries, neither of you will have any say who gets involved, okay'] Jimmy: ['he's got away with it this long'] Janis: ['well he isn't now'] Jimmy: ['I didn't come here for you to have another go at me'] Janis: ['I'm not'] Jimmy: ['nobody knows fuck all about it and that's the way it's staying'] Janis: [just shrugging like okay and getting up to go 'get some sleep' Jimmy: [likewise getting up to leave and actually go home this time like okay bye] Janis: ['next time this happens, don't come to me for help, because this isn't fair' 'because I do know and I'm not going to pretend I don't again'] Jimmy: ['I shouldn't have bothered coming this time' because we know it's not fair and we're just very sad and frustrated by life obvs 'do what you like' because lord knows we would if we could] Janis: ['I'm not going to tell anyone' 'but it has nothing to do with what I like, Jesus fucking Christ'] Jimmy: ['and I'm not saying tah for you not being a massive dickhead who'd proper fuck my little brother and sister over' a shrug but we're maintaining eye contact because this is serious] Janis: ['it's not about them' because it ain't Jimmy: ['you tell anyone and they'll get chucked into care same as I would'] Janis: ['remind him of that, not me'] Jimmy: ['you don't think I have done?'] Janis: ['there are ways to make it a more serious threat'] Jimmy: [just an exhausted sigh because he's doing everything he can always and it's not enough ever] Janis: ['think about it, the last thing he wants is people knowing, yeah? well I know'] Jimmy: ['might work for a bit, til he's too fuming to be bothered and just tells himself no dickhead'll believe you or owt else he needs to'] Janis: [just looks at him like there's all the evidence needed 'not like it's being made up though'] Jimmy: ['alright, it might be enough to get him to fuck off back to the north and get us away from you, but that don't help me'] Janis: ['except he doesn't want to go back, as is very fucking obvious by now, so it'd be easier for him to stop beating the shit out of you than do that'] Jimmy: [a look like yeah obviously but that doesn't mean he will] Janis: ['it's accountability, if he keeps doing it, I could tell anyone, everyone- he clearly reckons you won't by now, he doesn't know that about me'] Jimmy: [just clearly thinking about if she did have to then follow through on that threat though and tell everyone and how much he obviously doesn't want anyone to know and all of this is just in his expression rn] Janis: [shaking our head like well there's fuck all else to say rn 'get some sleep'] Jimmy: ['stop saying that' cos clearly neither of them will be able to very easily] Janis: ['you need it to heal'] Jimmy: ['just say you want me to piss off, you've already said not to bother coming back'] Janis: ['I'm trying to fucking help you'] Jimmy: ['I know' in a purely frustrated way but then repeating it in a soft way because we do know that] Janis: ['I don't know what else you want me to do'] Jimmy: ['I never said I knew what I were doing or what you should' this boy trying not to cry again over here] Janis: ['don't' but softly 'cos we've been trying not to cry this whole convo lowkey and we don't wanna do it now] Jimmy: [doing a feelsy lean with our good side because we want to hug her but we can't] Janis: ['I mean it' and moving away so he doesn't hurt himself, but not dramatically like get away] Jimmy: [a nod because we know and we appreciate everything she has done and is trying to do more than we can put into words without crying rn ' but I shouldn't have made you do that' a look at his shoulder 'I'm a dickhead'] Janis: [shrug like it's nothing, like I'm sure you've seen dislocated shoulders but doubt you were the one putting them back in but okay 'don't mean you deserve any of this'] Jimmy: [a look like don't because we know it's not nothing and we're really sorry about this now we're thinking clearer] Janis: ['you didn't have anywhere else to go'] Jimmy: ['that don't mean it were alright to come here and do this to you'] Janis: ['I'm not the one battered and bruised, I'm fine'] Jimmy: ['I'm used to that bollocks, it's having someone be bothered about it that I can't get my head round' when you aren't used to having people care about you ever so you always feel like you're fucking it up] Janis: ['be a pretty shit person if I didn't' 'so I can see the confusion' not really the time to be salty about that but we are] Jimmy: [a lol which we then regret because ouch] Janis: [tryna be serious like 'for fuck's sake' but a lil bit 😏] Jimmy: [when you wanna kiss her so much that you've simply got to, injuries be damned] Janis: [at least your face is purposely avoided so you'll be okay but you can't go in sad times for you 'I'm sorry' 'that you think I'm having a go at you'] Jimmy: [shaking his head because he genuinely doesn't think that 'I didn't mean that it were just -' no need to finish that because she knows what you mean, we've all been put through it tonight honey and we've already admitted we've been a dickhead] Janis: [nods because yeah 'I was never saying it was easy, I don't think that'] Jimmy: [also nods because yeah 'and I weren't saying it were a shit idea'] Janis: ['I just want-' not finishing that sentence like never mind 'anyway'] Jimmy: [all the eye contact because always 'what?'] Janis: ['I just want you to be alright' mumbling and not giving more than a second of eye contact like you haven't already said ily and that you care] Jimmy: [posing to show off the amazing job she's done bandaging him up and 😁 like I am alright now as if it's that simple] Janis: [just like mhmm like that is not what I mean and you know that but we don't need to get into it rn it's okay] Jimmy: [pull her even closer to you because we do know what she means and we appreciate it] Janis: [checking him like be careful please 'I'm sleeping on the floor' it's definitely a double but we don't wanna hurt him] Jimmy: [gestures at the bed like um look how much space there is compared to what we've used to 'no need for that'] Janis: ['could make a pillow wall' like people who hate their partners do lmao] Jimmy: ['that'll be Mia at every one of them sleepovers, cracking on just like her dad taught her' shading Ella and Mia's mum in one go lol] Janis: [we have to lol 'poor els, no 'accidental' rub ups for her'] Jimmy: [goes to do the 💔 but can only do half so has to force the bae to do the other bit for us] Janis: ['so tragic' and lowkey forcing him to get situated properly in this bed as comfortably as possible 'what are you gonna say happened then?' 'cos can't hide for the whole time it'd take to heal] Jimmy: ['weren't planning to do a q&a about it' cos he's honestly not thought about it yet with everything else he has been thinking about 'don't matter as long as nobody reckons you smacked me about'] Janis: [a look like who is going to think that? then rolling our eyes 'cos is the type of thing Mia would try to say lol 'well no one is going to think you got it playing a sport' cheeky bit of shade as we are looking in the wardrobe and under the bed for something] Jimmy: [chucking a pillow at her for the shade like oi 'I'll say I fell over or some bollocks, worked for my mum'] Janis: [making a noise like psh but we're not throwing that back 'you tryna prove you have aim? alright, I believe you' and coming back with the pillow and the sleeping bag we've retrieved to sleep in so we're not rolling all over] Jimmy: [a look like you know how good my aim is because any excuse to be saucy about anything especially when we're so upset about this whole sleeping situation but trying to downplay it] Janis: ['thank god you're ambidextrous' meant to be taking the piss out of him but it just sounds thirsty so we're loling] Jimmy: [😏 'you'll have to tweet that so the fans know'] Janis: ['the offers to fill in whilst you're injured would probably be a lot'] Jimmy: [😒 because we don't wanna think about that 'won't be a slaggy nurse's outfit left in this shithole once they've heard' because also true] Janis: [likewise 'gross' and shaking our head 'there's nothing sexy about hospital'] Jimmy: [a fed up sigh 'I can't be bothered with this' like it's an option to just not be injured, soz boy] Janis: [squeeze his non-injured hand like I know 'it'll be alright, we'll work it out'] Jimmy: ['can we not just fake going away like we were gonna do at new year's?' probably not boy but it's a nice thought] Janis: ['it'd be easier to actually go away' but a tone that's saying, that's how long it'd need to be, not suggesting it] Jimmy: ['let's do that then' as if that's remotely plausible in any way] Janis: ['are you concussed as well?' and moving our fingers about in front of him like follow but 😏 'cos we don't think he actually is obvs or we wouldn't be joking] Jimmy: [takes her hand and turns it into a 👍 like she's agreeing to his great idea 'wouldn't even have to be for that long' because we know he's not gonna do the 2 weeks off that you're meant to when you dislocate your shoulder because he never does what he's supposed to] Janis: ['where are we going then?' as we lay down ourselves] Jimmy: ['where do you wanna go?'] Janis: ['don't care' because we don't 'what about you?@'] Jimmy: ['what makes you think I care?' because likewise we don't] Janis: ['then just not here it is' turning to face him in our little sleeping bag 'assuming the pain pills don't wear off and you change your mind'] Jimmy: [a genuine smile at the prospect of getting to leave for a bit together even hypothetically tbh 'when they wear off you might change yours' and doing a 😒 af face] Janis: ['this is you being a delight, yeah?' and do a feelsy lean assuming we're sleeping on his good side 'cos makes sense] Jimmy: ['that were me doing an impression of you remembering what a nightmare I were last time we went away' because that skerries domestic when she tried to get him to sleep in a bed we all remember those joys] Janis: ['bit rude' like how dare you insinuated I'm ever grumpy lollolollll 'you'll be less trouble now you're fucked up' but a sad sigh 'cos its not funny though we're trying] Jimmy: [taking her hand again so you can write soz on it playfully but then just properly hold it because we heard that sad sigh and we are really soz in our heart] Janis: [doing the 👌 symbol which is probs hard to follow so then just doing a 💕 like] Jimmy: [doing an irl 🤝 because best friends forever] Janis: [then tucking him in like go to sleep nerd 'it'll be better in the morning'] Jimmy: [goes to say something because it won't be but we're deciding against it so she doesn't sad sigh again and closing our eyes instead] Janis: [gently lean over and kiss both his eyes] Jimmy: [not opening our eyes or anything but 'I really fucking like you' with feeling because he do] Janis: [got to kiss you on the lips with as much feeling 'cos we cannot trust ourselves to say anything rn] Jimmy: [have a moment because it's been a very dramatic night]
